The action was missed, but with roughly 200,000 in the pot on a board reading 9♠5♦2♠Q♠7♣, Aleksei Savenkov checked from the big blind and Diogo Coelho fired a bet of 200,000 into the middle. Savenkov thought it over for a while before eventually folding his cards and Coelho pulled in the pot.
Pascal Hartmann was seen raking in a huge pot at showdown, with Zhen Chen being the one who had to cough up the chips.
The full board of 7♣Q♠7♦10♣6♣ was already showing with all the chips in the middle of the table. Chen's A♠J♥ was no good against the A♥A♣ of Hartmann, which earned the German player a double-up.
Yunsheng Sun raised to 25,000 on the button and Juan Carlos Vecino defended from the big blind.
Vecino check-called a bet of 25,000 from Sun on the 5♦J♥8♣ flop.
Both players checked the Q♦ turn for the 10♦ to come on the river. Vecino bet 75,000, and Sun snap-called.
Sun turned over A♦J♦ for the nuts and took down the pot, much to the bemusement of his tablemates.
Tom Middleton and Ihar Soika got their stacks into the middle of the table preflop, with the latter at risk for his stack of around 200,000.
Ihar Soika: J♥J♦ 
Tom Middleton: 7♣7♠
Middleton needed to find a seven to eliminate Soika, but never managed to do so as the 10♦10♥3♦4♠A♠ runout kept the pocket jacks in the lead.
Ihar Soika on the button got his stack of over 400,000 into the middle against Stoyan Madanzhiev, who was in the big blind with the covering stack.
Ihar Soika: A♥J♥
Stoyan Madanzhiev: A♣Q♥
Soika had just doubled up, but couldn't hold onto his chips for long as the Q♣Q♠2♥6♠9♦ runout meant he was eliminated, and Madanzhiev closed in on a million chips.
Jon Kyte raised to 100,000 from the cutoff with roughly 90,000 behind. Andras Nemeth shoved from the button for 520,000 and Santhosh Suvarna called for his last 320,000 out of the small blind. Kyte agonized over the decision for around a minute before making the call.
Jon Kyte: 2♣2♠
Santhosh Suvarna: 9♠9♣
Andras Nemeth: A♣Q♦
If Nemeth could find an ace or a queen, he would send two players to the rail. The board ran out A♦K♦7♥7♦Q♠ to give Nemeth the best hand with two pair, aces and queens, and Kyte and Survarna were out.
The players have been sent on a 15-minute break.
